NQCI Terminates Merger Agreement and License Agreement.

BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. -- National Quality Care, Inc. (OTCBB:NQCI) ("NQCI") announced today that effective as of December 29, 2006, it has terminated certain agreements and transactions with Xcorporeal, Inc., including a Merger Agreement and a License Agreement, each dated as of September 1, 2006. In addition, NQCI has terminated all of the transactions and other documents and agreements between NQCI and Xcorporeal that are referenced in or contemplated by the Merger Agreement or the License Agreement. NQCI stated in its termination notice to Xcorporeal that NQCI had exercised its termination rights with respect to such agreements, documents and transactions on the basis of Xcorporeal's continuing, uncured and uncurable breaches of the Merger Agreement and its fraudulent and other wrongful conduct related to the Merger Agreement, the License Agreement and certain related matters.

NQCI further announced that it has filed a lawsuit against Victor Gura, a former director and employee of NQCI, alleging that Dr. Gura breached his employment agreement with NQCI and engaged in certain other wrongful acts. NQCI has named Xcorporeal as an additional defendant in this lawsuit. NQCI is seeking injunctive relief, compensatory damages, attorneys' fees, punitive damages and other relief from both Dr. Gura and Xcorporeal. Xcorporeal has previously filed a demand for arbitration alleging that NQCI has effected an anticipatory breach of the License Agreement. NQCI contends that the License Agreement is null and void and intends to defend the arbitration proceeding and vigorously pursue its claims in litigation.

Pursuant to a written notice dated January 2, 2007, Xcorporeal has consented to the termination of the Merger Agreement, but disputes NQCI's termination of the License Agreement, which Xcorporeal alleges to be in full force and effect. NQCI anticipates that the status of the License Agreement, and certain related issues, may be determined by an arbitrator or by a court.
